Tower of Sand

Tower of Sand Synopsis

Excerpt from Tower of Sand: And Other Stories

I have seen the compass-watch changing at midnight - Without pomp - one solitary, infinitesimal biped creeping down through the systems of wheeling penumbrae, rubbing his eyes with microscopic fists, his bell-mouth gob pants ?apping about his chill ankles, his immortal fraction still back in the bunkhouse, dreaming of the merry lights of Newark or the jolly racket Of Omaha.
